Google Earth images, on the other hand, are copyrighted. In the case of this Tutorial, this
means that you must not distribute your route with any part of the Google Earth image still remaining
visible on the terrain. Later in this Tutorial, I’ll describe some ways in which the image
can be erased; but it is your responsibility as the route builder to make sure this gets done.
The only tricks that I am aware of are called TransDEM, MicroDEM/HOG, MapMaker, or BaseMaps (plus derivatives).I have acquired a DEM mapped in TS12, that needs the google maps trick done to it.

I followed the instructions up to step 12. I can't save the georeferenced/UTM-converted image to a file.

Again, I can only recommend to invest a bit of time to learn using map tiles. And I promise you that you will never feel the need to come back to Google Earth.I found out that I had to crop the Google Earth images to get rid of Google Earth's stuff on the bottom and right side of images.
geophil, you suggested zoom level 15 with the TransDEM Map Tile client for Google Maps or Microsoft Bing but it's hard for me to see separate tracks in yards..
Open Street Map would be one of the map sources that has the New York subway lines. They may not stick out that distinctively in the default rendering, but you'll find them. Available in TransDEM via the Map Tile client.Someone created a complete and geographically accurate track map for NYC subway system at http://www.vanshnookenraggen.com/_i...geographically-accurate-nyc-subway-track-map/ but I don't know the scale that the map was created at.
Open Railway Map uses a variation the the map tile de-facto standard, not yet compatible with TransDEM. Underlying data is Open Street Map again. It's on my todo list for the next major revision of TransDEM.I found a website called OpenRailwayMap at http://www.openrailwaymap.org/ that has the best track maps.
